Identity Governance Client Tools: Command-Line and Scheduling Capabilities

Products

• CA Identity Governance
• CA Identity Suite

Issue/Introduction

This article clarifies whether Identity Governance Client Tools support command-line execution, external programmatic calls, or automated report scheduling.

Environment

Identity Governance 14.5 & 15

Cause

The Client Tools interface is architected strictly as an interactive, GUI-based utility designed for manual auditing of user permissions. It lacks an external API or command-line interface for automated integration.

Resolution

1. Usage Limitations: The Identity Governance Client Tools do not support command-line execution, script-based invocation, or automated report scheduling.
2. Tool Purpose: The auditing reports generated by this tool are intended for manual, on-demand spot checks of user permissions and must be invoked directly through the graphical user interface.
